Localization and synaptic effects of inhibitory vestibulocollic neurons activated by the posterior semicircular canal nerve in the cat.

Abstract

Cellular locations, axonal projections, and synaptic effects of inhibitory vestibulocollic (VC) neurons activated by the ampullary nerve of the posterior semicircular canal (PCN) were studied in anesthetized cats. The inhibitory VC neurons were identified by their monosynaptic responses to PCN stimulation and by their antidromic responses to stimulation of… (More)
